U2 Lyrics for the album 'No Line on the Horizon' including the songs,
No Line On The Horizon, Magnificent, Moment of Surrender, Unknown Caller, I’ll Go Crazy If I Don’t Go Crazy Tonight, Get On Your Boots, Stand Up Comedy, Fez – Being Born, White As Snow, Breathe, and Cedars Of Lebanon

Coming from a long line ofTraveling sales people on my mother’s sideI wasn’t gonna buy just anyone’s cockatooSo why would I invite a complete stranger into my homeWould you

These days are better than thatThese days are better than that

Every day I die again, and again I’m rebornEvery day I have to find the courageTo walk out into the streetWith arms outGot a love you can’t defeatNeither down nor outThere’s nothing you have that I needI can breatheBreathe now

16th of June, Chinese stocks are going upAnd I’m coming down with some new Asian virusJu Ju man, Ju Ju manDoc says you’re fine, or dyingPleaseNine-oh-nine, St. John Divine on the line, my pulse is fineBut I’m running down the road like loose electricityWhile the band in my head plays a striptease

The roar that lies on the other side of silenceThe forest fire that is fear so deny it

Walk out into the streetSing your heart outThe people we meetWill not be drowned outThere’s nothing you have that I needI can breatheBreathe nowYeah, yeah

We are people borne of soundThe songs are in our eyesGonna wear them like a crown

Walk out, into the sunburst streetSing your heart out, sing my heart outI’ve found grace inside a soundI found grace, it’s all that I foundAnd I can breatheBreathe now

This is pushier at immediately, coming with a bit of attitude. Did Bono really just say he is "not somebody's cockatoo"? He definitely says "I'm running down the road like loose electricity while the band in my head plays a striptease" and it's an apt description of this land of atmosphere and aggression.

16 June is Bloomsday. It's the day that Ulysses by James Joyce is set, commemorating the 16 June 1904 when James met the love of his life Nora Barnacle. I reckon it must be a tip of the hat by U2 to Joyce the towering international Irish artist who had huge ambition for his work.
